Regarding the "Comments on 'Near-field interference for the unidirectional excitation of electromagnetic guided modes' " by Lee et al

preprint2013arXivOpen access

Abstract

We would like to clarify the misunderstanding caused by comment [arXiv:1306.5068 (2013)] on our article [Science 340, 328 (2013)]. The vectorial near-field interference effect described in our article is a fundamental physical process valid for all kinds of waves, both photonic and plasmonic, and the discovery of this effect is the main topic of the paper. The experiment using a slit in a metal film was one possible practical realization, but the effect has recently been experimentally validated in several other structures, as described in this reply.
